Breaking the Surface in Aarhus

Tickets and more info: SPOR festival

Audiences are admitted in groups of 6-10 people at a time, with 10 minutes between each group. Please note that there may be a short waiting time.

The audience is invited on a journey into a symbolic realm beneath the water's surface in this installation, comprising 7 works in sound, art film, 3D video, and sensory effects in a theatrically coherent sequence. Breaking the Surface draws on ancient myths and rituals that have shaped life in connection with water within and around us over time and cultures. Inspired by the alchemists' journey towards reconciling opposites, in cycles and coherence, the audience is guided deeper beneath the surface into a surreal and aesthetic universe – from the initial steps, walking amidst the tones of the Sirens in a seven-voice choral work, to the conclusion lying under a vault of sound and 3D video. The compositions are unique excerpts of Between Music's pinnacle, AquaSonic, which is the culmination of decades of musical exploration under water.
